Because recording people without their consent is creepy AF.

    Of course it is. But if I do it locally it’s just me, not some megacorps wage slaves looking at the data.

    Mostly my nerd brain would like to go “what is this plant” or “overlay all planes overhead to my screen” 😀

    There are to separate issues here:

    • corporation gathering surveillance data on everyone
    • creeps filming women and children

    Even if it's just for you it's still creepy. You may not record people without consent but we don't know that. All we see is a camera pointed at us.
